| Default: | <none> |
| Applicable to: | BuildingTypes |
This tag determines what type of object a BuildingType produces. Although it accepts any string from the list↓, only four of them will actually work after going through a filtering routine:

Internal meaning
This section is in need of revision.
Internally, the value of Template:TTL is used to determine what something is.
If - for instance - a pointer to a TechnoType (by origin) is given over to a function, the function could get the TechnoType's "Factory" and determine whether it's a Building or an Infantry, Unit or Aircraft.
This works using an RTTI ID number for every Factory.
Although VesselType as well as CloningType are sometimes mentioned in Rules(md).ini, they are not valid values.
